I want to tie the balloons to the chair and… fly off on it
How many Americans, Kent Couch of Oregon intends to sit back in his garden chair during the long Independence Day weekend. However, unlike his countrymen, Couch will soar high above his garden. On Saturday, Couch intends to fly approx. 480 km on the deck of the garden chair, to which he will attach before 150 huge latex balloons filled with helium. The American will try to take to the air for the third time. – The first time, no one wanted to help me – recalls Couch. This time it already has a sponsor, a group of volunteers, and the blessing of Susan's wife. 48-summer Couch was inspired by truck driver Larry Walters, which in 1982 He made a flight over Los Angeles in his garden chair. Walters gained fame and a fine of high 1500 USD for breaking air traffic rules. If Couch is successful, next year he would like to fly in a chair over the English Channel, and maybe even over Australia. We wish the daredevil from Oregon good luck, however, we advise against trying to imitate his dangerous feat.
